Delirium Care Training

Facilitated by Registered Clinicians with extensive experience

Overview

This Delirium Care Training ½ day course looks at the basic understanding of Delirium, the treatments and the associated risks, difference between Delirium and Dementia and general observations including person centred care, good documentation and legal aspects/guidelines.

Why Delirium Care Important?

Delirium is a state of heightened mental confusion that commonly affects older people admitted to hospital. 96% of cases are experienced by older people. When older people with Dementia experience severe illness or trauma such as hip fracture they are more at risk of Delirium. This causes distress to patients, families and carers and has potentially serious consequences such as the likelihood of admission to long term care and increased mortality. People with Delirium may need to stay longer in Hospital and have increased incidence of Dementia and Hospital acquired complications such as falls and pressure ulcers.
